Consul General Wlldman ut Iloug Kong,
In IiIm last report to thu Stnto department
concerning the possibilities of American
goods an ImpiirlB Into Chlnn, says thero Is
u good Meld there for bicycles. Along with
cotton goods, cutlery and hardware, scents,
sweets and candlcH ho places bicycles as
having favorable opportunities In China.
Ho nltyj calls attention to tho necessity for
careful packing of all nrtlrlcH rteslgncil for
shipment to China. The hot, damp cllmato
of tho fnr oast has a damaging effect on
mnny products that would find a large ealo
there. This does not so much affect bi
cycles except to require careful workman
ship en the models shipped to China. For
Instance palntcl wheels would not last long
there possibly not long enough to sell tho
damp (seeking out weak points nnd haro
spotn to rust nnd weaken the framcH. Kn
umelcd blcyclcn would have nothing to fear.
It Is now posslblo for tho musically minded
wheclmnn to dispense sweet atraltm at will
for tho edification of himself nnd such per
sons ns ho chances to meet while encased
j In tho purtitilt of his favorite riastlme. An
Arizona Inventor has patented a music box
attachment for bicycles and tho lively
strains of "Hagtlme Liz" may soon struggle
for supremacy with Mendelssohn's "Songs
Without Words," If tho rider Is of a cosmo
K)lltnn taste. Tho music box Is attached ln
stilo thu frnmo nnd Just In front of the sad
dle. A shaft Is run from tho box to tho rear
wheel and on tho end of It Is a star-shaped
wheel which comes In contact with tho
spokes of tho blcyclo wheel. This contact
turns tho shaft and pots tho mechanism of
tho music box In operation. A hand lover
enables tho rider to throw It off or on.
Ono of tho oddest uses to which bicycles
havo been put this year Is mounting a corpJ
of detectives upon them. A bodyguard of
six detectives, supposed to bo Scotland Ynrd
men, havo been following the carrlngo of
Queen Victoria on bicycles to guard her
ngnlni-t dynamiters. These rldors havo been
going through this dally task for tho last two
months. Knch day when her majesty goes
driving tho wheelmen fall In bolurm .nd,
turning when tho royal carn.tss turns, fol

out when spectators noted that tho wheel
mien followed tho mounted police Into tho
guarded grounds of tho viceregal lodgo. It
has not yet developed whether or not the
escort is mounted on wheels mado by thoEC
"enterprising Americans."
It Is not n long time slnco cycles wero

At ltd meeting on Thursday night the
Nebraska Chres asso'iatlon made nrrango-
mcntB for u preliminary tourney, In tho na- j
turo of a test of tho relative merits of tho i
mombcrci, s) that a proper handicap plan
may bo drawn up. The members will play
two gumis, each with the' other, the play
to occm regularly on each Tuc''ay and
l'rlday evenings. In case there Is a short
ago of tobies, arrangements will be mnde
for play In the afternoons, ns the rooms
at the Merchants hotel ut,od by the associa
tion will bo avallnblc. Those who havo
bo 'far entered the contest nro Messrs.
Ilarker, Diddle. Hognn. Uoucher. Uruner,
tirrlftm, Mghton, Palmer. Points, Hath
burn, Hosenow, Shaw, Welshann and Tlllson.
When tho relative standing of tho players
has ben ascertained a perpetual tourney
will bo inaugurated and tho question of tho
champlonihlp of tho county and even tho
stato will be decided.
Although I'lllsbury has not a clean ncoro
In tho mnster'B cheoj tournament now In

satisfactory and there Is still sufficient op
portunity for him to carry off tho lnurcl.
For tho (list tlmo In an international tour
ney a ruin Is In forco that nil draws must
bo played off, although In case there Is a
second draw each player Is credited with a
half game. As thero were seventeen en
trlfH ono piny or was obliged to accept a
byo each day, and one of thefe fell to I'llls
bury In tho first four rounds of play. In
addition he ended hla gamo with Showalter
with honors even, although a second gamo
wns ptayeil In tho hope of settling tho con
troversy. In tho first three rounds there
fore tho player on whom the American
hopes center won one game, drew one and
did not play tho third. This ncore did not
appear as credl able aw the throo stralghl
won by Laskor. Maroczy, Tscblgorln and
llurn, but I'lllsbury -was In fact only a half
gamo behind. In tho fourth round I'llls
bury nlmoBt entirely wiped out the differ
ence by defeating Schltchtor, while llurn
dropped to the rear by losing to hanker.
Maroczy a!o was nblo to do no bettor than
to draw with Rosen, bo that the American's
ohanccB look considerably more favorable.
In tho fifth rouud playe-d on Friday Tills
bury won from Dldler, I,a,kcr from Maroczy,
Showalter from Durris, Melscs from
Tschlgorln.
Tho master's tournament at tho City, of
London Chess club was one of tho bewi In
recent years, and tho victory of Richard
Telchmann, tho Anglo-Oorman player, by
n half point over Mason and Ounsborg, was
sufficiently closo to lend excitement to tho
finish. Telchmann, llko our own I'lllsbury,

The revival of the newspaper proclivities
of tho women of Omaha recalls the fact that
tho record for a woman's edition of a dally
paper was set In theao parts by tho
Woman's May Day edition of Tho Dee, pub
lished five years ago under date of Mny 1,
1S&.1. It's unparalleled success was evi
denced by tho di nation of $2,221.31 as tho
net proceeds to the hospital for whose
benefit tho project was undertaken. Tho
story of tho venture ns related by Mrs.
Anna Fitch Skinner, who wt.h ono of tho
principal factors, Is as follows:
"At a meeting of Presbyterian ladles,
where tho needs of the Presbyterian hospi
tal were being discussed, one who has ever
been a leader and nn Inspiring spirit sug
gested tho publishing of n paper as n means
of revenue for the hospital. It was known
that women of other largo cities had met
with considerable success In that line. Sho
nrgucd that Omaha women wore us energetic
nnd Intelligent a any In tho land. The
need was great, the effort needed to bo
great. A meeting was called of tho women
of all the Presbyterian churches of the city
to discuss and decide tho matter. Regard
ing tho wisdom of thlH undertaking, there
was great difference of opinion, nnd It was
found that discussions must bo closed, that
immediate determination was the one thing
necessary. The opposition forces were In the
minority nnd lost. Discussion with the splca
of opposition had made somo ambitious
enough to undertake almost any task. Ily
vote it was decided to try to flu J a publica
tion willing to lot the women try this experi
ment, tho proceeds, If there were any, to go
to tho Presbyterian hospital.
"A cominlttie of women was afforded the
opportunity to wnlt upon the editors of the
leading dnlllca, Instructing them as to our
aggtesslve movement, nnd presenting our
modest niiuost.
"Tho llee, being nearest to our place of
meeting, and having ono of tho finest and
mint complete buildings In the country, nnd
knowing Its editor In always liberal when hli
fympathles are- with the cause, tho commit
tee decided to mnko Kb Ilrst nppral there.
As they wero being elevatored to tho editor's
sanctum, what thoughtsiwcro thelrw?
"Hcliocs of tho questions they expected to
havo piled to them. What is to bo its
religion or polltlcn? Arc you goldbug or
Htand on a free silver platform? I low-
much of tho proceeds will you contribute
to tho next campaign fund? I it tarlif
for rovcnini or free trade? Do you dc
claro yourself In favor of tho principle of
tho narty of which I am a loader? Ad
infinitum! It was "10 to 1." Mr. Hc;i?
water was tho one, and, with his usual
singular power of analysis and his quick
conception, ho discerned this at onre.
"Thero wire few questions asked, no re
strictions imposed; tho terms were, pay
mcnt for nothing but extra blank paper
Usui and extra composing required In Ivsu
Ing tho two editions. With assurances of
his best wishes for our unbounded success,
his Journal was ours for nny datn of Issue
we might name, gratuitously and with all
emolument. From that day tho editor wan

unou him. Ho had given up his Idol, anil
bravo man though ho be, he could not stand
by and see It managed by other hands.
l'm of Tin- llei- 'IVnili-ri'il.
"Our Ilrst real enthusiasm was received
by tho report of this committee. It is no
small undertaking for a party or inexpjri
mced women to take hold of a dally paper
with a circulation of 20,000 and hnving up
ward of ir0 employes, somo of whom have
had many years' oxperlenco. A paper that
for twenty-four consecutive years has hail
but ono namo as editor upon Its editorial

esty mo3t raro and simplicity exceptional
for editors, tho women becamo the publish
ers of two editions of The llee for May t
1893, tho nnmei of Hosewater not on tho ed
itorial page, and they responsible for every
Jlno that appeared In tho twenty-elght-pago
publication.
"The ono Idea dominant wns success, and
if popular appreciation counts for anything
In tho lino of success, tho women havo tho
satisfaction of knowing Tho May Day I)ro
i was a success. Wo would not havo tho pub

However, with tho tact, discrimination nnd

that they wero soon forgotten and no clam
ages had to ho paid from our afsots.

tho funny things that added to our experi

. to thorn, let us Just mention onn or two.
"A subscriber for ono numbor when offered

for. only ono number for 5 cents shn said
looking tho paper over, 'Is this all thero Is

I was excused from the obligation of taking
so llttlo for so much money. Again an m

'A twenty-eight-page paper, with a clrcu-
l.ition of 4S.000 coplfn, requiring ten and 1
one-half tons of pnper, was the result of our
labors. As far ns wo know, onn of tho Lug- !
est editions edited by women, nnd tho only '
ono editing both a morning and evening i
edition.
"As proof of success financially the net
profits were $2,221.31. lloth rdltlons went
to prets on tlmo and every mall was caught
on time. All this goes to show what can be
successfully accomplished by alert, detei-
mlned women, even though they bo Iikx
perlcnced in tho work they undertake.
'Humors hail tearhed us frcm other cities ,
of tho Ilrst ropy of the woman's paper being
sold for large amounts. What vhould we d ) J
with ours? This wns dlsciii'icd with many I
suggojtlotis. Tho public library, being o
near the hearts of all of us, It wjs dec d mI I
to donate our Ilrst copy to It, which wns I
done. Apropos. It was never thcrenfiiT-i
heard from, never having received h: notable
mention, nor, ns fnr ns wo know, has It n I
tho light of the sunshine of the library.
'Thu Sunday Heo of May ", S!)5, gavo a
lucid account of the work of tho day cf pub- i
liratlon, which wo will not lovlow. Imme
diately on tho afternoon edition going to
press tho women of tho editorial force
turniU the paper over to the men who are I
regulaily employed, realizing that their suc
cess was very gieatly due to tho perfect
systtmi nnd complete facilities of The He.
They wcio accorded tho most courteous
treatment and shown unlimited kindness by
every nttnehu with whom they came In con
tact, which tended greatly to lighten their
task nnd add to its pleasures and t'lUc'.eney.
"Tho circulation of tho evening rdiilon
brought our forces out oninnMo and any cio
who caught a glimpse of the rotunda of Tho
Hoe building while wo wcro waiting for our
papers will never forget tho sight, nor will
wo that final battln.
"Wo volunteered ns recruits, decidedly
raw, we disbanded veterans, though none nf
us was disabled or mortally wounded, neither
did wei feel wc hod 'fought our list fight.'
The brilliant deeds done Individually, end
oftentimes single-handed, will never becoro
history. That wo never retrcntttl, nor we. o
ever defeated, nnd but onco fell Into tho
hands of tho enemy, Ik our record.
